I’m currently in meet prep for the 2016 APF Illinois State Meet, in Sycamore, Illinois. I will be competing at 148 pounds, raw (without wraps). At this meet I will just be taking token lifts to qualify for APF Equipped Nationals which is in Orlando, Florida where I will be competing at 132 pounds, raw with knee wraps. As such, the bigger picture is to prep for this meet, and obtain a top three placing to qualify for WPC Worlds in November.

I'm back to performing some of my mini sessions and extra workout days. Just like prior, these are still light and just mostly blood flow and attacking some extra weak areas. We're still pretty far out, so these are a bit more generalized, but they'll get a bit more specific for things I need as the meet gets closer. I opted to train in the garage since the weather was awesome, and I didn't want to be cooped up inside a building to train if I didn't have to. Super quick, but the bench press iso holds against the bands was a great finisher. Might need to do these a bit more frequently to reinforce lat tightness off the chest.
